Looking for grace notes in life's journey...Tue, 29 Nov 2016 11:13:55 +0000hourly1http://wordpress.com/Comment on My mother’s table – Happy Thanksgiving! by reneejohnsonwriteshttps://graceandlife.com/2016/11/23/my-mothers-table-happy-thanksgiving/#comment-5971
Tue, 29 Nov 2016 11:13:55 +0000http://graceandlife.com/?p=9852#comment-5971I am so glad you had the opportunity to share the Thanksgiving holiday with your family once again. My sister and I hosted Thanksgiving in our Mother’s house, but we may sale it before the next one rolls around. She’s been gone since December 28, 2013, so it isn’t quite the same. Wishing you a lovely holiday season! Renee

Sat, 19 Nov 2016 19:25:36 +0000http://graceandlife.com/?p=9803#comment-5964Thanks for a great post it definitely made this old man think…….

After living 14 years in a remote 16×24 cabin in Alaska’s Northern wilderness cutting down the ‘little things’ one accumulates is not a problem. In fact now living an extended stay with my family ‘outside’ I find my small apartment eerily empty. Not because I lack the ‘little things’ but because they just do not seem to belong here…… just maybe if I were also to return they too would once again feel at ‘home’.

Several years ago I started buying the boys and grand kids outings vs. things – movie tickets, restaurant gift certificates, gas cards, etc — NO one needs all the stuff – it doesn’t make us happier, just hold us down.

Sun, 06 Nov 2016 10:46:24 +0000http://graceandlife.com/?p=8970#comment-5947Sometimes in our framing, we have a vision of what perfection should look like in our lives. This inevitably leads to disappoint. However, when we embrace all of life, the framing becomes a constantly changing (and growing) view that draws us closer to others! And life becomes more interesting and full of energy!
